Do you know how to dance? Maybe many people will say, I can't, I've never danced ......! But, did you know? Dance movements originate from daily life. Life begins to move in rhythm from the moment of birth. Dance actually occupies us every day and stays with us for our whole life. Children are born with the ability to move their hands and feet. Dancing is our i nstinct to express ourselves. The primitive and rugged African traditional dances are full of ardent life energy, a way for African people to remember their ancestors and continue their national traditions. Dance is a unique symbol of African culture. African dance is inseparable from African drums, which are the soul of traditional dance. In this performance, Cameroonian artist Simon Abbe will lead the audiences to his hometown and enjoy the music and dance from the central, northern, and western Africa. The “ndju ndju”, African drum, Balafon and the chocolate dance will bring the authentic African style to the performance. Please join us and enjoy and step with the rhythms of African drums, dance to their hearts' content and speak freely with our bodies!
